rooster59 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 British expat who doused girlfriend in petrol and set her on fire reportedly arrested in Thailand A British man who allegedly doused his former lover in petrol and set fire to her has been arrested in Thailand, it has been reported. Gary Iredale, 52, from Blackpool, set fire to Nguyen Hang at a tailor shop in Hanoi Vietnam. The horrific attack left the single mother fighting for her life having suffered severe burns to 70 percent of her body. It is claimed that Iredale flew into a fit of rage after Ms Hang told him their relationship was over after she met someone else. Iredale, who operated a vending machine business in Hanoi, had been on the run since the attack took place on Monday. Vietnamese news site GVTT reports that Iredale was arrested in Thailand on Thursday and is due to be extradited to Vietnam to face charges. No further details of Iredale’s arrest have been reported. A witness named Alan Nicholls is “It was the most shocking thing I've ever seen. “This guy came into the shop, wearing a face mask, and threw petrol over the woman and the rest of the shop and set her on fire. It's rocked the local community to its core.” Meanwhile, Brit Ben Evans who lives in the same apartment block as Iredale told MailOnline he had known Iredale for 18 months and described him as a “normal guy”. Mr Evans said a friend of his witnessed Iredale taking ecstasy and LSD on the night before the attack. “My friend said Gary was upset about his Vietnamese girlfriend not wanting to be with him anymore - and said he had problems with his elderly parents back home in the UK,” MailOnline reports Mr Evans as saying. “He was never short of partners over the time I knew him, all local Vietnamese women, and seemed a popular guy with his peers,” he said. “Over the past few months, he's had family troubles at home with aging parents and regularly goes home to see them, usually a few weeks at a time.” Local media reports that Ms Hang remains in a coma. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2018-01-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robblok Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I thought this was a Muslim thing.. or a Thai thing (when people start commenting on the frail Thai ego). But it seems foreigners can do it too. When rejected some people react totally crazy at times. Hope he goes to jail for real long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djayz Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I don't usually say what I'm about to say/write, but an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Get a canister of petrol and a box of matches. Problem solved. Usually we think it's only Thai men who can't take rejection, but apparently it's not just a Thai thing. Insecure little p***k can't take no for an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy only echoed what is constantly said about Thais when such an attack happens here. Kind of a mirror to all those expats who see themselves above the Thais. Now one of their own a Brit in this case could have been an other nationality too does it and nobody says anything about failing ego or small dick syndrome. Just shows how hypocrite the forum can be at times. I am quite sure that he does not mean it as an attack on the Brits but as a mirror pointing out what the response would have been had the guy been Thai.

Let the highest bidder be the one to administer the punishment, Sell tickets to the torture to make up for the cost of having housed him. Incredible that a person could do such a thing to another but we all know there were people like Hitler and Joseph Stalin. "Until he goes mad"......I think he is already mad, hence let's move to step 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should not say that about any nationality but I'm sure he admires you for 'stepping in' to explain his post for him. I could not care less if it's a Brit, Thai or Lithuanian burning another human is EVIL and any attack on nationality is a DEFLECTION from that evil and now we discuss? not the EVIL but an attack on a persons nationality! case closed, this is not the time to score 'points' over nationality spare a thought for the VICTIM.

All are capable of extreme violence if the provocation is enough. And we all react to different things. But, do you think his use of Ecstacy and LSD might possible have had something to do with it?

I am pretty sure XTC has not much to do with it.. mdma does not make people aggressive (just talkative and horny). I have used XTC often with friends in the past. (ok it was a while back but i still remember). Usually what happend after xtc was wild sex in after parties, not violence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
